(NEW YEAR'S MIX) People Loooovvve the End of the World!

PODCAST #80 People Loooovvve the End of the World

This is the Funky Soul Burner's New Year's mix for end of the year 2011, beginning 2012.  The inspiration for the mix comes from the ideas from anxious people that the world is ending - many of them believing that next year around this time, the ancient Mayan prophecy will doom us all.  Apparently it's the end-date of a 5,125-year-long cycle, but my unique ability and unfathomable skills of translating the Book of Chilam Balam of Chumayel tells me that when the sky collapses and trees raise up, we'll all be flailing our arms and dancing around like jungle birds in a mating ritual to none other than a…get this…a FUNKY SOUL BURNER podcast this time next year!  Sweet!  Anyway, here's to fire and brimstone, hell and high-water, the second coming (oops, that's a different interpretation of another religious text.  My bad ;), and to December 22, 2012, the day after it all comes crashing down.  The Funky Soul Burner will be waiting on the other side - I mean, I certainly chose the proper name for myself, right? - compiling more music for the year 2013.  Happy 2012, and let's keep it positive, and perhaps the end of one cycle lends itself to the beginning of another 5,125 years!  Cheers!
